Ray-traced rendering enhances the 3D objects with much more realism than ever before, with environment mapping and light refraction through transparent materials. And all 3D objects can interact with each other to cast shadows, reflections, transparency, specular and diffused light, and more. Text and shape layers can now be extruded with beveled edges, and footage clips, images, and solid layers or even sub-comps can be bent in 3D space. New 3D extrusions, bendable footage, and ray-tracingĪdobe has totally reworked the After Effects CS6 3D environment. (Adobe says that earlier tests by Nvidia yielded acceleration by a factor of 1.5 to 2.5 times, with some graphic functions being up to 16 times faster than before.) Additionally, this cache contains frames from all projects you have opened in the same or earlier sessions, so disk cached frames from one project will be retrieved for reuse in other projects that use those same frames.Īfter Effects CS6 also better harnesses OpenGL and your video card, resulting in a more responsive and immediate playback of large compositions-especially on larger displays. Selecting a dedicated solid state drive (SSD) on your system-whether an internal drive on a tower or an external USB or Thunderbolt drive-to be used as your disk cache, will greatly boost performance without further taxing your system hard drive. With the persistent disk cache, you can reopen a project you had previously rendered and have the cache remain intact and ready for immediate preview playback. The feature allows users to experiment or “nudge” elements without a performance penalty should they change their mind or accidentally hit something that would normally wipe out the RAM preview and force a re-render. Cached frames are restored after an Undo/Redo operation, when layers are hidden or revealed, or when timeline settings return to a previous state. The global RAM cache employs reusable frames recognized anywhere on the timeline-not just adjacent frames-as well as duplicated layers or sub-comps.
